(1) It
is our customer's responsibility to ensure that their
flowers are given to us in the best possible
condition. We would ask that we receive your flowers
ideally maximum 48 hours
after your wedding, but a few more days should not prove
a problem, as flowers
can be very resilient. Flowers should be kept in
a cool place. Do not spray
with water. Please do not put the flowers in a fridge
or freezer. If a hand-tied bouquet
- stems can be placed in water.
(2) Preservation Fee of £35.00 is payable
upon receipt of your flowers.
(3) Your flowers will immediately be put under the preservation
process after receipt.
(4) Always Blooms will do their very best to preserve
and frame your flowers to the highest possible
standards. However we do not take any responsibility
for any poor results - arising from age,
condition and variety of flower. It is our customer's
responsibility to ensure that they are
fully aware - after discussions with Always Blooms -
of the results they can expect from the
preservation process - i.e. that the colour of the flowers
can deepen and may sometimes need
to be enhanced.
(5) Preserving process can take anything between 4/6
weeks depending on flowers involved.
(6) Once our customers have chosen frames/mounts/etc
- our hand-made box frames
will take a further 2/3 weeks to complete.
(7) Always Blooms will not preserve flowers on a stand
alone basis. They must always be
incorporated into our hand-made box frames. It is also
not possible for our customers
to provide their own frames
(8) Always Blooms states that as preserved
flower arranging together with actual flower
arranging is not an exact science - the presentation of
them in our hand-made box frames-
whilst to the highest standards - in some cases will not
exactly replicate your bouquet
- this being dependent on style and size of frame chosen
and condition of flowers.
(9) Once our customer's hand-made box frame with flowers
is completed - to the
customer's satisfaction - no money will be refunded if
you are dissatisfied with the
colour, texture and positioning of your flowers in the
future. All details should be fully understood
before proceeding.
(10) A collection/delivery service is available - please
ask for costs at time of booking.
(11) Always Blooms advise that all flowers preserved by
us remain our property until paid
in full.
(12) Always Blooms would also ask that our final invoice
is paid within 1 month of invoice date
and that if this is not done - flowers will be recycled.
(13) Always Blooms takes no responsibility for any damage
sustained once completed hand-
made box frames with flowers are uplifted from our premises.
Some flaking of preserved flowers can be expected
(14) The preserving process can darken some flowers. Some
flowers are easier to preserve than others.
A degree of colour change can be expected. For example
a red rose will become a very deep red,
whereas, pink or white roses will retain their original
colour to begin with but will 'mellow' over time.
(15) Always Blooms liability is limited to the full price
of the completed hand-made box frame
with flowers only.
(16) Always Blooms reserves the right to
dispose of any flowers, if no instructions received
within
6 months from receipt of flowers.
